An American woman who woke up feeling the bed shaking was faced with an 'uninvited guest' she could not have imagined.



On the 4th local time, foreign media such as CNN, USA, introduced the incident that Christine Frank, who lives in Atlanta, Georgia, recently experienced in her house.



Early in the morning of the 30th of last month, Frank got some more sleep while her husband took his dog for a walk.

But after a while the bed felt like it was shaking violently, and Frank woke up thinking that the dog had just returned and was on the bed.




But it wasn't his dog that made eye contact with Mr. Frank.

A huge, unidentified wild animal was standing on the bed and looking down at Mr.



Startled, Mr. Frank immediately removed the animal from the bed.

Frank's husband, who heard the commotion, ran to the door and let the animal out.

The animal, resembling a 'leopard', stared at Frank and left somewhere, and the couple reported it to the Wildlife Service.




Experts who saw the animal photos taken by Frank said, "It appears to be a 'serval', a wild animal native to Africa."

The serval is a medium-sized cat that lives mainly in the African savannah, and is known as a nocturnal animal with a running speed of up to 80 km/h and high intelligence, with a hunting success rate approaching 50%.



Wayne Hubbard, a Department of Environment and Resources employee investigating the case, said, "It is believed that someone was keeping this wild animal at home. Imports of wild animals are increasing in the United States, and serval is a popular species. It is strictly forbidden for individuals to keep wild animals under the very current law.”



Hubbard said he was working to catch a wild animal that had disappeared in the middle of a residential area. "As shown in this case, raising wild animals by an unauthorized individual is putting both you and your neighbors at risk."




Frank also said, "As someone who has seen the animal face-to-face, I knew that it was an animal that should never be kept in a household. said.



This is a 'news pick'.
